Number Of Ingredients 6

a 1/2-pound log of mild goat cheese, such as Montrachet, cut crosswise into 4 pieces, or four 2-ounce crottins

1 teaspoon crushed dried hot red pepper flakes

  • In a 1-pint jar with a tight-fitting lid combine the cheese with the fennel seeds, the red pepper flakes, the rosemary, and the lemon zest, pour enough of the oil over the mixture to cover the cheese completely, and let the cheese marinate, covered, and chilled, for at least 1 week and up to 4 weeks. Let the mixture come to room temperature before serving.
